1 cockroaches can reproduce 10 million cockroaches in one year
Cockroaches are also called "Xiaoqiang who cannot be beaten". They are not really unable to be beaten, but their vitality is very tenacious. The higher the temperature, the faster the cockroaches reproduce.
Cockroaches can survive in very harsh environments and reproduce in large quantities. One cockroach can reproduce into a family of 10 million cockroaches in one year. As for eating, although cockroaches love sweet tastes the most, they are not picky about food, and they are willing to enjoy paper, glue, soap, etc. Cockroaches have very strong digestive ability and strong hunger resistance. American cockroach can survive for 3 months with water or no food.
Many people will instinctively react to step on it when they see cockroaches, but be careful! If you meet a pregnant Xiaoqiang with this foot, then its hard egg sheath will basically not be broken, and the Xiaoqiang inside will be given birth to the child in advance and will open the world to explore with your soles...
How harmful is the cockroach?
Cockroaches carry dozens of pathogenic bacteria, which can contaminate food and utensils. If you eat food contaminated by cockroaches, you may be infected with gastroenteritis , causing food poisoning or dysentery and other diseases.
Cockroaches are also very harmful to electrical equipment. They will grow in large quantities in the refrigerator compressor , microwave oven compressor, and even water dispenser at home, leaving safety hazards.
Causes of cockroaches being difficult to eliminate
1. Cockroaches have amazing reproduction ability, and they can both sexual reproduction and parthenogenesis.
2. The hiding place of cockroaches is too hidden, and people don’t know where they are hiding. Cockroaches love to drill into cracks. They live in cracks 75% of their time, and they almost reach a ubiquitous level.
3. Cockroaches often have activity time at night. At this time, people are in their dreams and it is difficult to react to cockroaches.
4. Cockroaches have strong ability to adapt to drugs, environment and spread.
How can effectively eliminate cockroaches?
Cockroaches like humid, warm and well-fed places, so if you want to avoid cockroaches at home, you need to keep the environment clean and tidy, and you need to clean and remove garbage frequently.
Cutting holes and wiping gaps mainly blocks the gaps in the kitchen sewer pipes and the gaps in the ceramic tiles, leaving "Xiaoqiang who can't be beaten" nowhere to hide.
If you want to kill cockroaches quickly in a short period of time, you can use cockroach medicine . It is best to buy solid medicine, because liquid medicine will be stained by the cockroach's body surface and taken to other places, which may contaminate food.
So what should I do?
According to the habits of cockroaches, the most important thing to completely eliminate cockroaches is to stay in the nest! Several key points:
1. Choose the right weapon!
① Cockroach House : The Cockroach House is actually a small house covered with strong sticky glue. There is a piece of bait that cockroaches love to eat in the middle. The cockroach comes sniffing the food and then is stuck tightly by sticky glue . This method is safe and non-toxic, but it catches the one who is very enthusiastic and lets go.
②Alkaline solution: such as laundry detergent water, dishwashing liquid water, boric acid, etc. that are circulated in people's mouths. Use the properties of these solutions to destroy the waterproof layer on the surface of cockroaches and let them dehydrate, or block the pores on the surface of cockroaches, making them unable to breathe normally. The principle makes sense, but cockroaches won't give you the chance to get yourself covered in solution.
③Choose poison bait (gel bait): This is a toxic bait. Cockroaches will not die immediately after eating it. They will not die suddenly when they return to the nest. Moreover, the poison bait is "contagious". Other cockroaches in the nest can die even after eating it.
Although it cannot be achieved immediately, in terms of the living habits of cockroaches, this method can achieve a true end.
2. Find the right position
Cockroaches and you humans have a common essence: laziness! Most of them live in dark and safe nests all day long, counting on the food residue we accidentally sprinkled into the gaps and living a life of eating. Only a very small number of fools would travel thousands of miles to the living room floor to take cockroach medicine, then climb back into the nest and die inside.
So, the glue bait must be sent to the mouth of the cockroaches before they can be eaten in groups to achieve a large-scale killing effect.
According to the living habits of cockroaches, the recommended medication locations are:
①In the kitchen: at the walls and corners, or at the corners or cracks of the ground, next to the gas stove, at the corners of the cabinet, at the corners of the cover, under the furniture, and other hidden and prone to moisture.
②In the bathroom: at the corner or crack of the wall, next to the sink, corners of the ground, etc.
③Inside the living room: at the corner of the wall, the corner of the TV cabinet, under the coffee table and under the sofa, etc.
3. Deal with the corpse in time after killing
The cockroach medicine was released at home, why did he come back the next summer? Because it is very likely that you did not kill Xiaoqiang's family at all!
You should know that cockroach medicine can only kill cockroach adults and has no effect on cockroach egg . If a female cockroach with egg sheath dies, its eggs may still hatch small cockroaches. Only by cleaning up the corpse of the cockroach in time can this problem be avoided to the greatest extent.
Behind the butt is an egg sheath
Experts suggest that since cockroaches may carry cockroach egg sheaths in their bodies, the most effective way to kill cockroaches is to wrap it up and burn it with a handful of fire.
The ultimate trick: clean your home!
Let the cockroaches see you and turn around and leave
After saying so much, what can I do to invite Xiaoqiang out of the house more effectively than cleaning in time?
If you want to kill cockroaches, you must seal the food at home and hide it. kitchen waste must not stay overnight. In addition, cockroaches are resistant to hunger and thirst. Therefore, you have to apply water stains on the stove at night before you can go to bed.
Keep clean and hygienic so that cockroaches can’t find food or drink in your home. This is the only way to prevent the breeding of cockroaches from the root!
